Rove is going after candidates and seats that are as he puts "too conservative"

The reaction to this should be interesting.

I'm guessing the right is going to finally hand him his hat on this.

I find this funny in that Rove is the one that started his party down this ultra conservative path and he loved the Tea Party.....until he saw they were costing him elections.....which in turn will hurt those donations from rich assholes he so dearly loves....

There are three Republican candidates who can plausibly win the GOP nomination in 2016, former George W. Bush strategist Karl Rove said Wednesday, but he doesn't think Donald Trump is one of them. Instead, Rove said he'd pick "[Jeb] Bush, [Chris] Christie, or [Marco] Rubio, in alphabetical order," telling MSNBC's "Morning Joe" program that while he can make the case that "probably six or seven people," including Trump, can make the nomination, he doesn't think it's likely that the New York billionaire will win.

but in reality he's taking the right course

Strongy disagree. He started his party toward Neoconservatism and in the process did irreparable harm to the Old Right.
